I'm providing the same for my children, so they can also provide similar to theirs. Why can't Somalis in the UK do better, like the Hindu Indians have, who are well educated and amongst the prosperous communities in the country. On reason,among many, I believe is because of large families. Each child gets less of everything with every new child born in the family. If you look Irish families in the past (not as common today), they were poor, because they were large. Its wasn't unusual to find families of 7 or 8 children. But they were living on the breadline, in abject poverty. Each child will then grow up with this poverty and a sub-standard level of education. Do not tell me that the lack of family planning among Somali communities and the failure of these communities are not correlated. Those who do are in denial. Ok, I now see where your're coming from. Sorry that I judged you prematurely.

We have a nice house in a nice neighbourhood, a Mercedes for me and recently a VW for the wife. I send the boys to private, fee paying schools. I also pay for private tuition to ensure their success. We go for holidays abroad twice a year,most recently to Malaysia. I buy for them, what they need, but make sure never to spoil them. You may think we are your typical Western family. This is the life. You generally cannot have this lifestyle with 5, 6,7+ children. You'll have to buy a bigger house and put them into state schools. Not to mention the headache of running a large household. For get about the holidays too. It's just a holiday, but it adds to the well-being and the bonding of the family The family will generally be happier and the kids will have more of a chance in life than their counterparts who have numerous siblings. Personally, I detest those men who use their wives as baby-making machines. And worst of all, when they are needed, they are nowhere to be found. And I hate those women who starve their households for the monthly Ayuuto/Hagbad. This is why a lot of Somalis are in the shit here in the UK. Large families, living in inner city ghettos with kids attending some of the worst schools. Its a cruel vicious cycle. You come off as smug.

Very interesting article Saffs, thanks.

Family planning is nothing more than misanthropic marxist B.S. Whites are now reeling from their current state of self inflicted racial suicide (birth rates below replacement levels) as a result of wholeheartedly swallowing the nefarious designs on the traditional family by these evil leftists under the guise of 'progressiveness'. Ragow dumarka guursada, sii fiicanna u dhaqda, ciyaal badan oo diintooda, dadkooda iyo dalkoodana anfaca dhala.

They are the sons and daughters of this nation ee cirka kama soo dhicin dadku. furthermore, a great majority of them have never set foot outside the regions of Southern Somalia let alone outside Somalia.

Kenyan forces have been killing innocent Somalis, shelling refugee camps, destroying homes, raping women, and pillaging Somalia for nearly two years without even the slightest of condemnation. In fact, many of those who are now shedding tears over Westgate Mall were blithely apathetic to the Kenyan atrocities back then. Dry your eyes folks, Westgate was just a tiny fraction of what is inflicted upon poor Somalis civilians day in day out. This is true no doubt. But it still does not justify what happened in that mall. Both these foreign mercenaries in Somalia, in the form of the KDF and AMISOM, and Al-shabaab are a menace to the region.
